Conservapedia:User rights

User rights refers to the ability to perform particular actions on Conservapedia. Apart from ordinary editing, there are five additional rights that some users are granted.

Edit rights

Whilst all users can edit, in order to avoid vandalism, editing is sometimes shut off while it is night-time in the U.S. While editing is shut off, only those users granted editing rights can edit at all.

Editors granted these edit rights are listed here.

Upload rights

Again to avoid vandalism, the right to upload images is restricted (at all times) to particular editors.

Editors granted upload rights are listed here.

Block rights

To counter vandalism, a some editors have the ability to block vandals.

Such editors are listed here.

Administrator rights

Some editors are granted the ability and authority to enforce Conservapedia's rules and resolve disputes. These administrators or sysops have the following:

• Edit rights
• Upload rights
• Block rights
• The ability to delete (and undelete) pages.
• The ability to move (rename) pages.
• and more.

Administrators are listed here.

Bureaucrat rights

Some administrators are granted the additional ability to change user rights. They are known as Bureaucrats

Bureaucrats are listed here.

Requesting further rights

If you would like to be granted any of these rights, you must have a proven record of being a genuine editor. Only Bureaucrats, can change editing rights, but you might be better to approach a sysop who is familiar with your work, and he can recommend to a bureaucrat that you be granted additional rights.

Administrator and bureaucrat rights are generally only granted when there is a specific need, not simply for being a good editor.
